I have a 1999 Ford Super Duty 7.3 w/ Turbo. I noticed that the engine is starting to run rough and starting to loss power. The oil and temp. are running fine. How can you tell if the turbo is working or not. Can someone please help me fine the problem. There is no smoke. I did have to have the number one injector replaced about 3months ago. PLEASE HELP

It's the harness under the valve cover. It stands for Under Valve Cover Harness. But I don't think it's your UVCH. Do me a favor. Unplug your injection control pressure sensor.



Let me know how your truck runs. Also, how much oil is on the plug.

Again, when was the last time you had a oil change? It could be dirty oil or even be low on oil.
